Description
Original photo from "Wakefield : 350 years by the lake." Current photo taken by Mary Anne Power, 2011.
"I chose the West Ward School / Little Red Schoolhouse / Wakefield History Museum as the subject of my Then And Now mashup. The building is a part of Wakefield history has recently been beautifully "reborn" as the home of the Wakefield History Museum. When I drove by one day this winter and saw how wonderful the restored building looking in the snow, I had to go back with my camera. The "then" picture is taken from Wakefield: 350 Years by the Lake." - caption provided by Mary Anne Power, contest winner.
